Tutor/Pupil system

<< < (2/6) > >>

Thomas:
Yeah, I was just looking at the 'get X pupils to rank 5'. Some achievement junkies might try to gather up as many low ranks as they can, and then just let them be while they wait for them to reach that rank.

I think the other achievement suggestions are spot on though.

I could see a "Play x  Matches with your pupil on Y ship" (for each ship), and even "Play as an engineer for your pupil as they pilot/captain" (so players teach them how to pilot as well. Then some play on different maps, etc. Mostly things that require the tutor and pupil to be on the same ship, perhaps with some near the end being to play against your pupil.

Wazulu :
Hmm, I'd be wary of dropping the level cap to 6 to be a tutor- especially in terms of engie, but more so when concerning gunner. A number of players are rushing achievements and getting to these levels pretty quickly, resulting in (anecdotally seen this several times) mid-levels performing as typical low-levels, such as rebuilding the hull with a mallet- the achievement system is not a direct reflection on knowledge of the game. There's also the question of communication, and whether the person would be an effective in their methods of teaching, such as usage of voice chat etc.

I suggest to do it by hours as each class, rather than achievements. I'm still thinking over the exact boundaries, but it's a more reliable measure than achievements. You could have a dual boundary, such as you have to have X hours in each class to teach at all, and Y hours in the class you want to teach, with Y being a higher value, naturally.

Captain Smollett:
Achievements are much easier to do now than they used to be.  I'm still finding level 4-5 players that still need to be taught tons of things.

Vainamoinen:
Well another limitor for tutor could be a number of hours player (well if you are afk in the lobby I guess it still increases the number of hours played, so might not be the best) or a number of match played (which proves a "dedication" to the game) but both are much less visible to the user as valid tutors.

Squidslinger Gilder:
I'm all for changing that stupid teaching achievement. Lets do eet!
